Default Poll: Red or Black Calipers on my Grand Sport

I'm torn on what color calipers to go with. Just curious what you guys think. Black could look killer to match the wheels and stripes. Red would definitely stand out more.

I think the black would blend into the rim ,making the red paint on your car pop even more then it does now. Looking good.

Go with red.

I have the same theme. TR with black wheels, and tints. Looks like your car and i have red calipers. At a stand still, the red calipers complement the theme, When you're driving the red calipers really make the car pop.

If it were me, I'd do nothing. There's already plenty of red.
The stock calipers look fine.
However, if I had to paint them, it would most defiantly be red.

Either red or black would look good ... probably red since you have black wheels though. That way you'd be able to see something in the dark void.

Not sure what "rainbow" would be but it doesn't sound good. I assume both red and black?

When the wheel spins, the spokes disappear. Black calipers disappear too, so, any color other than black...I like red, it's on mine.
